the present rendering with a specific year (1958), would be more acceptable, if a region could be established. as example, was the first locality to declare Christmas a public holiday in Scotland, in ..to do so, would require additional research..am hoping those with the available resources, in

I unfortunately don't have the resources to research this..however Jocelyn Grant, archivist for the National Records of Scotland, in her 2018 article "Christmas:Banned in Scotland" has indicated the Christmas public holiday in Scotland began in 1971 (not 1958)..she has posted copy of an article
863:
Sorry, but why is there a picture of a clootie dumpling in this article? I'm aware of no connection between clootie dumplings and Christmas, and if there is one, it ought really to be explained within the article rather than just slapping on an apparently random picture.

the statement "Christmas Day did not become a public holiday until 1958 " can be found in a few books. in my opinion, it is rather misleading. since, there is no legislation indicating Christmas was ever declared a public holiday in all of Scotland, in 1958.

In 1871, Christmas Days was declared a bank holiday across the UK. In Scotland, this meant banks were closed on that day, but many people who didn't work in banks would still be expected to be in work.
519: 668: 825:
however, I would go further, to say that Christmas may have been declared a public holiday in some localities, in Scotland, as early as the 1940's (or possibly, even earlierĀ ?)..
686: 682: 844:
entitled ā€˜Scotlandā€™s Christmasā€™, from the Glasgow Herald, 22 July 1970, to prove this..would appreciate that someone could look into this, and update the article..many thanks
